    Help I'm not the pilot!

    in Mission Editor Bugs

    Posted

    After some few years with this sim, I decided to give the mission editor a go and make a few missions of my own.

    Less than successful!

    Having followed the tutorials and read the manual, nowhere could I find how to make myself the pilot. I know, another noob. Started with just a simple "take off,:helpsmilie: fly to way points and then landing" However when the mission began It was being flown by A1.

    Please anyone just nudge me to the answer.

    Control problem

    in Controller Profiles and Problems

    Posted

    Using the warthog hotas and flying in Dcs 1.5, I have no problems whatsoever.

    The controls work flawlessly.

    Flying Dcs world open alpha, something is definitely amiss. The throttle throws the plane to one side and I have found it almost impossible to complete anything.

    I have trimmed the rudder, pitch and the wings, put in deadzones, this as not helped.

    Is anyone else having this problem? and if so, please tell me what you did to rectify.:helpsmilie:

    Controls missing?

    in F-15C for DCS World

    Posted

    I found that in the campaign for F 15 c in Flaming Cliffs and the mission called "Bear Trap", nothing up front works.

    I can start the engines and take off but then nothing else works.

    There does not seem to be any controls for switching on electrics. the radar will not switch on and I'm flying blind.

    Is this just a bug ? or am I missing something here?:helpsmilie:

    Start up cheat Black Shark

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted

    Ok, I know, but really cannot take time to go through the whole start up sequence and prefer the L/windows-home route.

    I recently bought a Cougar gaming keyboard which lacks the L/window key and in spite of using "Sharpkey" to remap, it didn't work within the game!

    If anyone has had a similar problem and knows of a solution, please, please let me know.:cry:

    1.5.3 issue - Game won't start

    in Game Crash

    Posted

    Thanks for the quick and helpful reply. After installing games, I always put a shortcut on the desktop and never start anything from the start menu.

    So, voila, there it was and it worked perfectly. I now have both of the versions running, although for some reason the Nevada scenery has gone from incredible to dark and dingy? There is also black marks around the edges of the canopy. This is since the last big update.Has anyone else seen this happen and if so, what is the problem?:thumbup:

    repair

     

    Have you guys tried a repair? any mods being re-applied after update?

    Where in the installation is this link you call repair? I haven't found any such link.

    Both Alpha and Beta refuse to load since the latest update. I just have gigabytes of games that don't work at all.

    And I might add, very expensive too.

    Throttle and uncontrollable behaviour

    in Controller & Assignment Bugs

    Posted · Edited by mikethemadmonk

    First, let me say that this massive update is mind blowing. However, I've found some peculiar behaviour taking place. Whenever I:joystick: apply speed or throttle back, the plane loses all control and I have to fight to maintain forward flight. It's like I was applying right rudder.

    This is happening on all the planes in Alpha.

    I fly with a warthog hotas, badly!

    wrong version

    Thanks guys, worked a friggin treat. All done and loving it!"

    Just a note, why didn't the "Expert" who replied to my ticket, reporting this, know anything about it and in fact said that I must have signed in with a different key?

    wrong version

    in Installation Problems

    Posted

    Have downloaded and installed 1.5 successfully, however after downloading my planes they would not install. Wrong version! The only version I see on the site are 1.2.16.43180.9.9, they should be 1.5.2.48162. I am stuck and not getting any help after starting a ticket.

    Can anyone please confirm that there is indeed a later version, or have they yet to be unveiled

    Black Shark 1

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted

    I bought a boxed DCS black Shark some two years ago. Why doesn't it install and play without having to use Dcs world?

    I just want to fly around and blow up things with:cry:out all the rest of the setup.

    Which I have by the way.

    Although I can install it and it does show in the full game, the given serial is not accepted?

    Unable to install

    :doh:DCS World update 1.2.16.38741.722.423. After hours downloading at snails pace due to living in rural france and following instructions to the letter,the game refuses to install.

    When I click the "exe" file, the process starts, then it states..." setup needs next disk", please insert disk1 and click ok. "If the files can be found in a folder other than the one displayed below, enter the correct path or click browse.

    All the files are in the one folder. What the hell can I do?

    iPad (Touch Control) pit for Ka-50 Ver 2

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted · Edited by mikethemadmonk

    Jib, have seen your setup and have decided to do the same. Unfortunately I am not having much luck setting it up. I have successfully set up the Admin but unable to use TouchControl because I cannot enable the IRCommand2 interface. I have bought the upgrade but don't know how to enable it. I also bought the IRTrans and Autohotkey, God knows where they reside.

    Would you be so kind and give me some pointers in the right direction before I throw my ipad in the bin.

    Thanks in anticipation.
